In the early 1900s, New York City believed the future of mass transit wasnt just undergroundit was vertical. Engineers and newspapers promoted strange new prototypes: double-decker railcars, stacked elevated trains, and even three-level carriages designed to squeeze more riders into the citys narrow rights-of-way. These ideas werent fantasies. They were serious, widely debated solutions to overcrowding during the birth of the subway age.
This episode explores those forgotten designs, the political battles behind them, and the surprising engineering experiments that followedincluding the odd shad-belly cars that came closest to making multi-level transit a reality. We trace why these innovations ultimately failed, what replaced them, and how almost none of these early prototypes survived the demolition of New Yorks elevated lines.
Join us as we uncover the rise and fall of New Yorks lost double-decker L cars.
